Episodes

This week we do our wrap-up of season 1 including our overall thoughts, MVPs of the main cast and guest stars, best episode, and we rate the entire season. Also Jack gives the best sign-off in podcast history.

This week we discuss all the twists (which we mostly predicted), our problems with an extended stay in the mirror universe, and we worry one character probably isn't coming back like we may have hoped.

This week we talk about the Seth McFarlane show The Orville. SPOILER ALERT: We think it's better than Star Trek: Discovery. However we talk more than that. This week we discuss general thoughts and go over the cast and main characters. Next week we'll discuss each episode and give our final thoughts!
